I followed those instructions to flash u-boot to SPI: https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-build/blob/master/recipes/flash-spi.md I was then able to boot FreeBSD from SSD (dd FreeBSD-13.0-RELEASE-arm64-aarch64-ROCK64.img to SSD, just like it would be to SD card), but ethernet wasn't working. Actually, it could receive packets but no outgoing packets were sent. Not even ARP packets - switch didn't detect any device on that port, but link was UP I assumed it was something to do with u-boot, so I erased u-boot from flash, then DD FreeBSD-13.0-RELEASE-arm64-aarch64-ROCK64.img to SD card, and it worked without problems. Do I understand correctly that this means that FreeBSD on rock64 uses custom u-boot? Can I somehow flash it to SPI? Possible workaround that I can think of would be to put /boot on sd card, install u-boot to sd card, then put / on SSD. Thanks in advance -- Łukasz Moskała
